Women compensate 150,000 for stock trading, and the number of investors in psychology department has increased.
Recently, the stock market has fluctuated greatly, and the number of patients who go to the psychological department for treatment due to stock market problems has increased.
Since June 15th, the market has plunged from a high of 5,100 points. After three weeks, the stock prices of more than 1,000 listed companies have almost been halved, and investors have complained. In the past two days, the stock market has stopped falling and rebounded. Whether it can be untied or not to enter the market has become the most concerned thing for investors now. With the changes in the stock market, investors are also full of depression and anxiety, and some patients who have stopped taking drugs for many years have experienced repeated illness after trading stocks recently. All this has led to the peak of consultation in the psychological consultation room of the hospital. Doctors said that citizens with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases or a history of mental and psychological diseases had better not trade in stocks.

Do these symptoms find you in the stock market?
Wei Qinling, deputy chief physician of the Psychology Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, pointed out that the most common symptoms of investors are insomnia, depression, irritability, anxiety, excessive self-blame, depression and remorse, and their self-evaluation is obviously reduced. The most prominent influence is sleep. Some people can’t sleep all night, others have difficulty falling asleep and wake up early at three or four in the morning. Many people are accompanied by obvious physical symptoms, such as palpitation, chest tightness, trance, physical pain and incoherent speech.
"If you have poor psychological endurance and enter the market with gamblers’ psychology, you lack a clear understanding of the crisis. If you encounter stock market fluctuations and suffer heavy losses, you will be hit hard." Wei Qinling pointed out that people with fragile psychological quality, depression, anxiety and other personalities, or those who have suffered from mental illness may not suffer great economic losses, but they may also be severely hit by the spirit, resulting in psychological obstacles such as fear, hallucinations, anxiety and delusions, or even complete mental breakdown, resulting in mental illness or suicide.
Ren Hong, a psychologist, said in an interview with reporters that the symptoms caused by negative emotions brought by stock trading include insomnia, inability to concentrate, frequent stupefaction, impatience with others, and serious cardiovascular diseases.
Shareholders "all sentient beings"
"A thousand cups don’t get drunk": if you are in a bad mood, you will get drunk.
Mr. Zeng, a citizen of Guangzhou, is extremely good at drinking and has the nickname "a thousand cups are not drunk". The night before, at a class reunion, he was drunk after drinking only two small glasses of white wine and collapsed on the spot. It turned out that due to the recent stock market fluctuations, he was deeply trapped and lost more than 1 million yuan. Depression and poor rest reduced his tolerance for alcohol.
White-collar workers in foreign companies: the mood is greatly affected by the market.
"To be honest, I’m not in the mood to go to work now." On the other end of the phone, Yu Qing, a white-collar worker from a foreign company in Shanghai, lamented, "In order to make everyone feel at ease at work, the company uninstalled all the stock-trading software on the office computer, but this can’t solve the problem. We will still watch it with our mobile phones."
Yu Qing has gained a lot since the stock market began to enter the rising channel last year. "It’s certainly happy to watch the money in my account go up," Yu Qing told reporters. From last year to June 15 this year, her profit exceeded 40%. "Because I haven’t been trading stocks for a long time, I’m more cautious. Many optimistic stocks are afraid to buy, and my girlfriends have doubled their assets this year."
However, the two big crashes on May 28th and June 15th directly brought Yu Qing back from her beautiful dream to reality. "The slump of more than half a month lost all the profits of the previous year, which was too powerful." Yu Qing said that since she entered the stock market, her mood has been more and more influenced by the stock market.
Young teachers: insomnia, anxiety and poor memory
Wang Xiaoqiang is a young teacher in a key middle school in Shanghai. "You said that the stock market crash had no impact on your emotions. It must be false. But as a teacher, being in a good mood or not can never affect class, so the pressure is particularly great when class is over. " Wang Xiaoqiang said that the money he invested in the stock market mainly came from his salary income and the money originally used to buy a car provided by his wife’s family. "At first, the two of us decided to roll more money and buy a better car. Now … it is estimated that the plan to buy a car will be postponed. "
Wang Xiaoqiang said that during the stock market crash, his anxiety was mainly manifested in insomnia, dizziness and poor memory, and he was not interested in anything. "Colleagues who didn’t speculate in the office said that we were called’ stock trading syndrome’," Wang Xiaoqiang joked.
Depressed wife: the husband makes a big loss by himself.
Ms. Xu, a citizen of Guangzhou, and her husband entered the market separately at the end of last year. Her husband retreated before the stock market adjustment, making a net profit of several million yuan. However, her previous stock selection judgment was wrong, and she wanted to "wait a little longer and prove her vision". I didn’t expect the recent stock market shock, not only did the previous investment income disappear, but also lost 150 thousand yuan after being forced to close the position.
Despite her husband’s consolation that "our family has made a lot of money on the whole", Ms. Xu, who is very strong, can’t bear the blow. She still sighs and feels sorry for herself, and makes repeated deduction every day, reflecting on her step-by-step tricks after entering the market and thinking that she is "very useless and too unlucky". She can only sleep for four hours every day, and her mood is on the verge of collapse.
The reporter was informed that Ms. Xu suffered from depression a few years ago. This mood fluctuation caused her illness to recur and she needed to be admitted to hospital for antidepressant treatment.
Senior consultant:
The stock market magnifies the mood of anxious people.
According to relevant personnel from the Department of Psychomedicine of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, recently, the number of patients who come to consult and seek medical treatment due to stock market problems has increased, but there is no exact statistics on the specific number.
Li Jianzhong, a senior psychological consultant and founder of Li Jianzhong Psychological Studio, said in an interview with this reporter that people who come to see a psychological doctor because of the stock crash or fluctuation are mainly anxious. Most of them don’t feel that they have personality or psychological problems, and want to find some short-term and quick ways to control their emotions and relieve insomnia and anxiety through drugs.
Li Jianzhong said that the stock market is an amplifier, which magnifies the inherent characteristics of personality. In the face of the recent stock market crash, some people feel at ease and rebound, and their normal lives are not affected. These people themselves are relatively calm and rational; However, some people devote themselves to the stock market and are completely influenced by the stock market. When they fall, they are anxious and insomnia, indicating that they have anxiety in their personality, which is not so obvious when they are not trading stocks.
Psychologist:
Self-inflation makes investors think they are stock gods.
Ren Hong, a psychologist, said that most people made a little money when they first entered the stock market. This made their egos extremely inflated, and then they invested all their money. At this time, everyone is a stock god. "And when the stock market began to plummet, these investors not only lost the money they earned, but also lost the principal. At this time, they will use fantasy to comfort themselves and firmly believe that the stock will definitely rise back and will rise higher. "Ren Hong said that when the losses are increasing, they will buy more and more, and now it is much cheaper when it is not the highest point. At this time, investors use fantasies to support their own judgments, especially some unreasonable fantasies, which is actually an extension of greed.
The stock market is also a comprehensive classroom for investors. "It is a valuable spiritual wealth to learn how to adjust your mentality, how to face up to the increase or decrease of property at a certain time, how to abandon greed and gain satisfaction," Ren Hong told reporters.
Solution 1
Analyze one’s personality and find the source of anxiety
Li Jianzhong reminded that to get rid of anxiety, from the perspective of psychological counseling, we should first reflect on our personality and mentality patiently and reread ourselves. Willing to think about why you are anxious and find out the cause of anxiety is the difficulty in relieving symptoms. "We start from people’s childhood and understand the experience of character formation, which will help to improve character." Li Jianzhong said that on this basis, some technical methods such as deep breathing, exercise, meditation, talking with friends and taking part in hobbies can achieve therapeutic effect.
Solution 2
Thinking about the essence of stock trading and putting the focus of life right
Li Jianzhong also suggested that investors should not put all their value on the stock market. Even if the stock falls, they still have love, family and children. These are the most important things, so they should look at these good things more. Li Jianzhong said, "I also want to do stock trading in the past, but if I invest very little money, my profits will inevitably be less, and it doesn’t make much sense. But if I invest a lot of principal, it’s impossible not to stare at the stock market, pay attention to it or do my homework. This requires a lot of energy, which affects my work and life. "
Doctor:
Old people should prepare a heart-saving pill if they are trading stocks.
"The number of people visiting the psychology department these days is indeed a little more than before, but it is not so exaggerated." Chen Gong, the attending doctor of a municipal hospital in Shanghai, told reporters that the recent sharp rise and fall of the stock market has made many people unable to eat, and the patients are mainly concentrated in their 30 s and 50 s.
"It is usually pulled by family members, and patients don’t feel that they have psychological problems." Chen Gong introduced that psychological patients usually have resistance when they first come, or they are silent or irritable, and these are the manifestations of extreme psychological depression.
Wei Qinling, deputy chief physician of the Department of Psychology, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, pointed out that most of the patients related to the stock market at present are recovered from mental illness. Some people got better and had stopped taking drugs for many years. This time, stimulated by the failure of stock trading, their condition relapsed and even became heavier.
Five suggestions for shareholders’ families
Chen Gong suggested that middle-aged and elderly people with coronary heart disease, hypertension and other diseases are not suitable for stock trading, because the ups and downs of the stock market can easily lead to violent emotional fluctuations, which is quite unfavorable to health. "If the elderly insist on stock trading, quick-acting pills must be brought with them. This is not a joke, it is a very serious problem."
1. Middle-aged and elderly people suffering from heart and brain diseases should not speculate in stocks.
2. Those who have a history of mental illness are not suitable for stock trading.
Wei Qinling pointed out that the mentally vulnerable, the people with anxiety and depression, and the ex-patients with mental illness, it is best not to engage in speculative business such as stock trading, and to invest in the stock market, it is necessary to leave room. For investors who have suffered heavy losses, family members should not blame, don’t complain, and be more open. Even if thousands of dollars are dispersed, with the support of family members, they will not enter a desperate situation.
Regarding the saying of "stock trading syndrome" circulating among investors, Chen Gong said that it is a kind of mental illness and needs timely intervention and treatment. "I suggest that new retail investors who have just entered or are about to enter the stock market should first ask themselves if they have this endurance. Can you face the ups and downs calmly? If not, please temporarily dispel the idea of stock trading. "
3. retail investors who will enter the market should evaluate their self-psychology.
For patients with heart problems, Chen Gong said that in case of such accidents, others who don’t know professional first-aid knowledge should never move the patient easily. Instead, they should help the patient to take the first-aid medicine and call 120 emergency number in time. At the same time, they should find quilts, cotton-padded clothes and other warm items to cover the patient to help him keep his body temperature.
4. Help the patient with heart disease to take medicine.
5. Pay attention to whether there is any abnormal behavior in the stock market family.
Wei Qinling reminded that once investors are found to have abnormal signs of emotional behavior such as insomnia, depression, sudden silence and self-blame, their families should take them to seek the help of professional doctors as soon as possible to prevent possible dangers.
